N Drawing. Application June 7, 1935, Serial No. 25,506. In Germany June 16, 1934 7 Claims. (Cl. 10624) Exam ill 7 The present invention relates to cement masses which, when worked up with water, yield particularly waterproof concrete and for the treatment of which only relatively small quantities of water are required.

These advantages are attained by the addition of substances which increase the solubility in water of the cement and thus accelerate its mixing power. As substances which may be mixed with cement there may be used, according to our invention, water-soluble organic compounds containing a eas car on a oms m the molecule, however "no sulfo-grou The term sulfa-group is used herein to mean, as usual in chemical nomenclature, the group SOcI-I when it is directly linked to a carbon atom. As

particularly useful there have been found such water-soluble organic compounds containing at least 8 carbon atoms in the molecule but no sulfo group as contain one or several h drox l on s. Compounds of tEs hind are, for instance, obtamable by transformingalcohols which as such are insoluble in water, for instance fat alcohols,

mtg water-soluble compounds by the action of sever molecules of ethylene TiiiidF'Fiuthtz'F olyhydroxyeth l gl'um sa 1; cf a mic acid, hydroxyethylated "sperm oi & tt aci hy roxyethylated odecy alco l'1 o l hydroxyethylated casein, oy y roxy- E-oleyl alcohol, hydroxyethylateh methyl 'gyc ohexanol, rox eth Iated ri'cmoleic acid, hydroxyethylated glenol, creso -po yg yco c ether, stearylammeo Z ycollic ether and hydroxyethylated octodecyl-alcohol.

1 t e same a van age t ere may furthermore be used as additiians to cement the deriva tives of al 0 s w 1c are so e water not owing to the repeated hydtoxyethylation of the alcohol, but owing to its transformation into the artial esters of polybasic acids There may parhchlarly Be used the artial tr f sulfuric of maleic acid. Useful compounds of this kind are especially the ester acids which are derived from fat alcohols of high molecular weight, tor lIlS ance ammoiiiumo ecy a co ol sulfate,

e quan 1 ative r s in which the additional substances may be mixed with the cement vary according to the molecular weight of the admixture; as a rule there is used a quantity of about 0.5 to about 2 c t.

The 6 es erve to illustrate the invention, but they are not intended to limit it thereto, the parts being by weight if not stated at rwise:

1 When mixtures of concrete are prepared there is dissolved in the water used for mixing ssniept mai man ethx a iwq t hol (with ether groups neighboring the car'- "binol group) in a quantity of 2 per cent. of the cement to be used. By the addition of this solution to the mixture consisting of cement and the additional substances there is attained that a liquid magma of concrete is produced with the same quantity of water as is used for the preparation of rammed or compressed concrete. This liquid magma of concrete may for instance be used by pouring or it may be conveyed by means of a pump. For instance for 100 parts of Portland cement and 480 parts of river sand there are used 47 cc. of water which contain' 2 grams of polyhydro ethylated wool fat alcohol in the EEsolved condition. Ey the admtional substance described the consistency of the concrete is altered; the drawback of an increased additi of water is, however, avoided.

The e nbeka ta ei,b du tiqn f m ,gahnnut oil f atty acid is converted into the acid sulfo ester. The sodium salt of this sulfo es't? Ts'hihid'iha finel'y'iulterizd form with cement in a ratio of 1:200; the mixture of concrete is then prepared in the usual manner with sand or gravel and ager. 1 part of alcohol sulfonate, 200 parts of Portland cement, 965 parts of river sand and 93 parts of water are, for instance, usa. e using the same quantity of water as has hitherto been required for the preparation of compressed concrete, 9. liquid magma of concrete is used owing to the addition of the liquefying substance. The concrete produced is suitable for casting and pouring or it may be conveyed by means of pumps from the mixing machine to the building place.

if -.1 r e 91-P91yslm1li -...e h r. Obtained by hydi'oxyethyqatign from xylenol is dissolved in quantities of 5 per milk-calculated upon the weight of the cement-in the water used for mixing the cement; the cement magma is then prepared in the usual manner." By the addition of xylenol-polyglycollic ether a change of the consistency of the cement mortar is attained in such a manner that a magma of concrete which otherwise is only plastic becomes capable of being poured or cast by the addition described; an increased addition of water is, however, not required. For instance 100 parts of gortland cement and 480 parts of river sand are mixe W1 '7 cc. of water which contain 5.5 gram of xylenol- 4 \pglyglyc'ollic ether in the dissolved condition.

We claim:

1. As a new composition of matter a mixture of cement and a water-soluble hydroxyethylated organic compound containing at least 8 carbon atoms and being free from sulfo groups.

2. As a new composition of matter a mixture of cement and a water-soluble hydroxyethylated organic compound containing at least 8 carbon atoms and at least one hydroxyl group and being free from sulfo groups.

3. As a new composition of matter a. mixture of cement and a. water-soluble compound containing at least 8 carbon atoms and obtained by the action of ethylene oxide on a water-in soluble alcohol.

4. As a new composition of matter a mixture of cement and a water-soluble polyhydroxyethylated wool fat alcohol.

5. As a new composition of matter a mixture of cement and a water-soluble xylenol-polyglycollie ether.

6. As a new composition of matter a mixture of cement and a water-soluble beta-naphtholpolyglycollic ether.
